Bharat Steels plans to change a service condition listed in the Third Schedule of the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, and no settlement, award or exempted category applies. Which course complies with the Code?

Bharat Steels must give affected workers notice of the nature of the change and may effect it only after twenty-one days from that notice. No exception such as a settlement, award or emergent shift change applies, so immediate or next-day implementation would breach the Code.

  1. AEffect the change immediately and inform workers later
  2. BGive notice of the nature of the change and wait until twenty-one days after the noticeCorrect
  3. CGive notice and effect the change on the next day
  4. DEffect the change after informing only the Trade Union office-bearers verbally

Explanation

Section 40 bars a change without notice to affected workers of its nature, and also bars effecting it within twenty-one days of giving notice. None of the provisos apply. Hence notice plus a wait of twenty-one days is needed.
